Fanjiatai Prison Continues to Detain Dafa Practitioner Xiong Jiwei, Even though He Has Been Tortured to the Brink of Death (Clearwisdom.net) Xiong Jiwei, age 33, worked as a doctor for the Employees' Hospital of
Shuanghuan Chemical Industry Group Inc. in Hubei Province. Mr. Xiong started
practicing Falun Gong in 1996 and was well-known as a good person. He used to
suffer from several diseases, including Hepatitis B, yet after he began to
practice Falun Gong, all of his diseases disappeared. Since July, 20 1999, he
suffered from persecution on numerous occasions because he adhered to his
belief. At around 6 am on July 20, 2002, after finding out that his wife had been
arrested because she had clarified the truth about Falun Gong, Xiong Jiwei
picked up his 7-month-old daughter and went to Dongmafang Police Station to ask
for his wife's release. A policeman called Zou Musheng put Mr. Xiong and his
daughter under house arrest. Mr. Xiong asked Zou why, and disregarding the fact
that Mr. Xiong was holding an infant, Zou kicked him in the groin and then
continued to beat and kick him together with 7 to 8 other policemen, including
the director of the police station Xu Guohua. They then handcuffed his hands
behind his back. That same day, He Zhongpin, Huang Guoying, and Xiao Haibo, the
policemen from Xinji Police Station, illegally detained Mr. Xiong in the First
Detention Center of Yingcheng City. The environment in Yingcheng City First Detention Center is very evil. This
is the same detention center where Dafa practitioners Zhan Wei and Song Huaping
were tortured to death. In the detention center, Mr. Xiong Jiwei clarified the
truth to the prisoners and shouted "Falun Dafa is good!" in order to
validate Dafa. In order to stop Mr. Xiong from shouting "Falun Dafa is
good," the superintendent of the detention center, Tang Zuqing, and
director Song Jiang brutally beat him, then stuffed his mouth with towels and
gauze and handcuffed his hands behind his back. Mr. Xiong went on a hunger
strike in order to protest against the vicious persecution that had been
directed at him. The next day, the superintendent of the detention center Tang
Zuqing, director Chen, the prison doctor and Cadre Gao force-fed Mr. Xiong.
Because Mr. Xiong firmly resisted they were unsuccessful in their efforts. While
he was shouting "Falun Dafa is good," the policemen poured water onto
him, which was very dangerous because it could easily have entered into his
lungs, causing him to choke to death. They also attached shackles to his feet
that weighed over five kilograms, then held his legs and rolled him back and
forth so as to make his anklebones come into direct contact with the shackle,
causing him great pain. Due to his firm resistance against the persecution, Mr.
Xiong was released six days later. At around 10 am on October 25, 2002, five policemen from the Xinji Police
Station arrested Xiong Jiwei without reason while he was on duty and took him to
the First Detention Center of Yingcheng City. On the afternoon of the same day,
without any legal procedures, Mr. Xiong was illegally sentenced to four years in
prison. In the detention center, Xiong Jiwei went on another hunger strike in order
to appeal against the persecution. After nine days, he grew very weak and
developed symptoms such as blood in his stool, cramps, etc. His family members
strongly demanded his immediate release. On the morning of November 3, Mr. Xiong
was temporarily released for medical treatment for 15 days. However, the
policemen from the Xinji Police Station still confined him to his work unit for
continuous persecution. A few policemen from the Xinji Police Station guarded
him around the clock. Mr. Xiong continued his hunger strike and demanded to be
immediately released. Not until November 6 did the police allow his family
members to take him home; however, they kept him under constant surveillance,
both day and night. On the morning of November 11, Mr. Xiong had been on a
hunger strike for 18 days. Even though his term of temporary release for medical
treatment had not expired, He Zhongping the superintendent of Xinji Police
Station, deputy superintendent Xiao Haibo, and a few other police broke in Mr.
Xiao's home and forcibly carried him from his bed to a police vehicle. He was
then sent to the Yingcheng City Legal Medical Clinic for continuous persecution.
One week later, he was secretly detained in Fanjiatai Prison. It was reported
that Mr. Xiong's health is in a very bad condition. Due to his condition,
Fanjiatai prison was afraid and didn't want to be held responsible for his
death, so they refused to take him. Later on, after Xinji Police Station and the
Shuanghuan Chemical Industry Group Inc. bribed the prison almost 100,000 Yuan [the
average monthly salary for an urban employee is about 500 Yuan] they did
take Mr. Xiong. As of January 2003, Mr. Xiong has suffered from a respiratory
infection and bronchitis due to the torture that has been inflicted on him.
While in prison, Mr. Xiong would often receive both physical and mental torture
to a degree that one cannot even imagine. However, facing the violence, Mr.
Xiong peacefully and righteously resisted the evil persecution, treated everyone
around him with compassion, and clarified the truth to everyone with whom he
came into contact. The telephone numbers of the people responsible for his persecution: The office number for Wan Nianchun, the deputy Party Secretary of Shuanghuan
